Dylan James Smyth is from Blanchard, Michigan. (FACT) The government's complaint places him near the Washington Monument early that morning and later at the police line on the Lower West Plaza, and alleges he helped move a section of fence barricade. Every word of that is an allegation in a charging document — charges, not a verdict, and not proof. (FACT: charges only) He is charged with felony civil disorder along with several misdemeanors. He is presumed innocent, as every American is. (FACT) Note the January 20, 2025 clemency proclamation covering January 6 offenses. (FACT) The court record, kept plainly: U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Charged by criminal complaint. This profile is unclaimed. If this is you — or your family — claiming it is free, forever.
